Moving up to the 35-39 age bracket (oh wait, I did that with STYLE)...

Potty training times two scarred us forever (oh wait, NO MORE DIAPERS!)...

The Trying Threes (oh wait, Terrible Twos are over!)....

Losing grandpa Joe (no upside to that)...

Skin cancer (staying out of the sun will prevent future wrinkles) (believe me you don't want a picture of my scars on my pasty flabby belly).
A big part of me is so ready to say SUCK IT 2009... but 2009 had some serious high points.
An unforgettable trip to see the Obama inauguration...

A half marathon...

A beach trip...

Hours and hours at the pool (next year with a hat in the shade and SPF50)...

A family trip to the lake cabin...

One of the best Halloweens of all time...

Friends and more friends...


The best friend of my entire life...

My beautiful boys...


And my amazing family.

2009 was an incredible year. Thank you to everyone who has supported us, both here in and in real life, throughout the ups and downs. To some, this may seem like just a teeny tiny mommy website, but to me it has enriched 2009 in a way I can not put into words. 2010 promises to hold some amazing things and I hope you'll join me for the ride.
Happy New Year!

As always a great post to say goodbye to 2009. So, so, so glad I got to spend a part of it with you and the Amazing Case family.
Here's to 2010 and all that it holds.
And who would have thought that Murder She Wrote wouldn't have made the cut?
Happy New Year! Here's hoping for a 2010 that is even better!

Happy New Year, Laura. I virtually toast to your 2010!!
Happy New Year!! I have enjoyed your blog this entire year, thanks for sharing your life with me! :o)- Also, I lost two grandparents this year, and they were my last grandparents... so, yes, 2009 did have some good, and some bad... but, I guess we roll with it.
Lovely!
I hope that 2009 will be the first of many years of friendship between us ... and that in some other year, our May 2006 babies will get to play together. Thanks for everything.
Happy New Year!
Beautiful post with many beautiful photos. Happy New Year Laura!
